Spontex XANTOS windscreen wiper cleaning sponge, model 514224

Spontex XANTOS windscreen wiper cleaning sponge is a compact cleaning tool designed for targeted maintenance of car wipers and surrounding glass areas. The sponge shape and material allow precise contact with rubber blades and wiper channels, helping to remove dirt, road grime and deposits that reduce wiping performance. Intended for routine care, this cleaning sponge supports clearer visibility and prolongs effective blade operation when used as part of regular vehicle maintenance.

Advantages

The sponge provides focused cleaning on the entire length of the rubber blade without damaging the elastomer material. Its compact size and ergonomic shape make it easy to handle and reach into wiper channels and tight areas near the windscreen. The cleaning surface lifts contaminants and residues while minimizing the need for aggressive solvents. Using a dedicated windscreen wiper cleaning sponge reduces streaking and improves contact between blade and glass.

Suitable for

• Cleaning rubber wiper blades on cars, vans and small commercial vehicles
• Removing road grime and deposits from wiper channels and blade edges
• Routine maintenance before and during seasonal changes
• Preparing blades for replacement by removing debris and loosening deposits

Key specifications

• Compact sponge design for targeted cleaning of wiper blades and channels
• Soft material suitable for rubber blade surfaces
• Ergonomic shape for handling in narrow or recessed areas
• Intended for manual use with light cleaning agents or water

How to use

Lift the wiper arm away from the windscreen and wipe the sponge along the full length of the rubber blade, applying gentle pressure to remove deposits. For stubborn dirt, moisten the sponge with water or a mild detergent solution and repeat passes along the blade until residues are removed. Clean the wiper channel and surrounding glass by running the sponge into recessed areas, then rinse and dry the blade before lowering the arm back to the screen. Avoid using strong solvents that may degrade rubber.

Usage recommendations

Use the Spontex XANTOS cleaning sponge as part of regular vehicle maintenance, especially before seasons with heavy rain or salt exposure. Inspect blade condition after cleaning; if the rubber shows cuts, deformation or persistent streaking, replace the blade. Store the sponge dry and away from direct sunlight to preserve its cleaning performance.
